Sounds like you need AdBlock, friend. NoScript is even better, though I recommend both.
Best wishes

How do you get ad blocker & chrome on windows 10? This site is driving me crazy! Takes 10 minutes to type this message. Keep getting bumped off, get some crazy little blue circle, that keeps me from typing!

I had lots of problems on Tues. The Adclick program
would lock things up. It was impossible that morning.
As many may know all those ads take up time loading,
and they make the site much slower.
The owner of the site gets revenue every time
someone clicks on an ad.
I really get PO'd when the sound starts up on one
of the ads.

If you have Microsoft Edge.....DON'T USE IT for this site. Use the Internet Explorer browser with adblocker installed. Works flawlessly, and not one ad to be seen  For a few days, I couldn't access this site from my phone, because of the annoying Facebook popups that locked everything up, but that problem disappeared like a fart in the wind.

I was going to suggest what is below until I saw others suggested it. Made my several year old computer act like new. Far faster than it had been and no popups either.
FROM YOUR FIREFOX START PAGE
(Before logging into the 24hourcampfire)
go to top of page, click on box with 3 horizontal lines
then click on the MASK icon = NEW PRIVATE WINDOW

Wow. This entire thread really took me by surprise. I have NEVER seen a popup or an advert on this site. I just thought it was better run than most others. I must be doing something right eh?

Surfing this site on a cellphone is aggravating. It's not much better most day's on my desktop. Someday's I get constant full screen pop-ups and other days the ads at the bottom of the page start talking. The pages take a long time to load because of all the damn ads that have to load with the content. I can appreciate that this is a for profit website but there comes a time when ads over take precedence over the content. They are on the ragged edge here.

I occasionally have same issue on 24HCF with an iPhone 5s. Going to "System" --> "Safari" --> "Advanced" and turning off "Java Scripting" will stop the pop ups for no cost.
Keep in mind, that setting may also cripple some legitimate apps that use Java, eg: FB, and some weather apps. So, gotta flip flop. But works for me on the occasions that I have an issue with the pop ups on 24HCF. And, the cost is zero...

I use an add-in to FireFox call NoScript. I controller what runs on my computer from across the wire.

Have no issues on the PC using Chrome with Ghostery and Adblock Plus. Have zero popups and zero ads currently.
On the Android tablet, with Chrome I get more issues but can usually navigate semi-reliably...
But on the Android phone is the biggest goddammed pain in the ass anymore. Using Chrome browser, something is screwed up... Whatever tells my unit to open the virtual keyboard is wanked and can hardly post anymore, which might be a good thing! But the site constantly drops out and has to be reloaded. It is definitely related to 24hourcampfire only regardless of what anyone claims. Previous posts indicate the site will act differently via different carriers or networks. Whatever the case may be, I have zero issues anywhere else.

I have had virtually all of the issues mentioned. It was so bad for awhile, that I could not even log in. I don't know what happened, but it is better now. The site quits working regularly, but comes back fairly quickly. I have never had any of these problems on any other forums.

You can stop it from happening on an IPhone by tapping the "X" on the address bar just before it finishes loading, but you have to do it every time you look at a different page. Kind of a PIA but at least it makes viewing on a phone tolerable. This is what I've learned to do.

It works just fine with my preferred browser, Safari, too. In fact, I believe that I am using Ad Blocker Plus. Is saved my ability to use the Campfire and it was very easy to install guess i've been lucky. may not matter but i use Chrome with the free AdBlocker FireFox and adblocker are our friends!
